[APML] A souce of ammusement
Hi gang,
I found something that I will have a spot of fun with tomorrow at work. I
was just leafing through the latest S&T that arrived today and I tripped
over the Willmann-Bell ad that included my book Wide-Field Astrophotophy.
In that ad they included some review copy that appeared in England's
Astronomy Now. A line in that review begins with "Reeves not only writes
well....." For years my handwriting has been deteriorating due to medical
and environmental problems and it has reached the point where I often have
to translate my own writing on work orders at the shop where my day job is.
Its a standing joke that I should have been an MD because my illegible
handwriting would be perfect for prescriptions. My overpaid and underworked
dispatcher is going to have serious objection to that line in the ad, but at
least I finally have some proof that on rare occasions I can be legible.
